Really! We're getting snow today! We've had such a mild snowless winter so far, it's hard to believe but everytime I go upstairs, I see snow & it's such a surprise. I don't think it'll turn into a problem which is good.

I'm still excited about my Pea Ridge quilt on the front page of this issue of Quiltmania. It's my first front page, so I guess that's what's done it for me this time.

Do you get this magazine? I hope you can find issues near you; I know some friends find it difficult to get a copy of this magazine. It is truly a beautiful magazine; printed in France & I think that their photography is exceptional. The quilt itself is still in France & I'm missing it; should be back soon, I'd think, as they should be done with it now.

It's time to get serious about new designs for spring market which is in Kansas City this year; really close for me so that makes it a money saver - fewer than 6 hours travel. I'm so thankful for that - so mid-May I'm off to Kansas City!

So, what are you working on in your sewing room these days?? I've been machine appliquing these little 5" Union Star blocks; I just love them. I'm sure they'll be making their way into a new Generals quilt before long.
